About the Item

Macarena and Penguin is an Etching hand colored realized by Gotthilf Heinrich von Schubert - Johann Friedrich Naumann, Illustration from Natural history of birds in pictures, published by Stuttgart and Esslingen, Schreiber and Schill 1840 ca. Johann Friedrich Naumann (1780-1857), was son of the farmer Johann Andreas Naumann (1744-1826) who trained as an ornithologist, and is usually considered the founder of ornithology. The depicted birds are hand-colored in a really beautiful way, with a level of accuracy and precision unimaginable today. Color transitions, for example in the breast plumage, are reproduced very precisely. The panels are inscribed with the names of the birds by hand, but it is not possible to say with certainty whether they were done privately or by the publisher. Overall Very good condition.
